Phenomenological Constraints to Dimensionality of the Spacetime with
Torsion    [PDF]

Oscar Castillo-Felisola, Cristobal Corral, Ivan Schmidt, Alfonso Zerwekh

Using the recent limits established by ATLAS to the contact four-fermion interaction, bounds on the size of the extra dimensions of space-time have been found, by assuming that the contact interactions come through the inclusion of torsion in the higher dimensional theory. For two extra dimensions, the limits are comparable to those in the literature, while for higher dimensional space-time, the volume of the extra dimensions is strongly constrained.
